Product Description

Dredge Floats for offer-shore dredge work

Dredge floats are made from high wear resistant MDPE material by rotational molding technology. The outer shell is made of medium density polyethylene material with excellent flexibility, filled inside with high strength polyurethane closed-cell foam. Dredge floats can be used for HDPE dredge pipe from SUNPLAST, and it can provide buoyancy for dredge pipeline.

Dredge floats are widely used for supporting suction/discharge hoses. The dredging pipe floats are manufactured in a bright color to act as warning signs to other vessels in the vicinity.

Dredge floats are also manufactured in a way that will allow them to absorb the energy from vessel collision, to protect the pipelines that they are supporting. Double reinforced hardware on every float ensures a safe and secure connection to the pipe.

Thanks to the excellent structure and good performance, the floats have become the ideal substitution of the traditional steel floater for the floating dredging pipes.

Features of Dredge floats

SUNPLAST dredge floats have many advantages as below:

※ The floating structure is equipped with shock and wave resistance, compact and reasonable structure, easy installation and excellent performance. Being floating materials for mud delivery pipeline on water, it becomes the first choice of dredging customers.

※ Light weight, high resistance to wear, being convenient to install and transport, and low cost of transportation and transformation. ※ Resistance to corrosion and climate, 3 times more than steel buoy in terms of life span. ※ Easy, fast and flexible assembling diversified modeling. ※ Low price and cost performance is significantly better than that of steel buoy. ※ Light weight, big Buoyancy. ※ resistance to impact, and acid-proof alkaline, anti-corrosive etc ※ Simple installation and low maintenance costs ※ service temperature range-60°C-80°C
